Chillingly, the violent security employee slaps the lad, stops him from leaving and aggressively grabs his collar.

A witness who filmed the shocking violence said the victim, aged around 20, was not involved in the initial brawl.

The man, who doesn't want to be named, said: "They pushed him on the ground and smacked him in the face.

"There had been a big fight with loads of people but that guy wasn't doing anything."

HARROWING: The footage shows the man struggle after he was hit

He added: "He wasn't fighting anyone. The bouncers are a bit aggressive there, every time I go there something happens.

"I just think they got carried away.

"They shouldn't have picked on someone who hadn't started the fight.

"They should have called the police and split everything up but they seemed more interested in fighting themselves."

It is not known if the young victim suffered any injuries in the attack.
